Carbon dioxide can be added to short pearls during normal maintenance. Although it can grow without carbon dioxide, the growth rate will be relatively slow. In order to speed up their growth rate, they can be properly supplemented with carbon dioxide, and regularly add some liquid fertilizer to make the plants grow more prosperous.
Dwarf pearls need light during normal maintenance. They are suitable for growing in strong light environment, low light will affect its growth, and sometimes make the plant turn yellow. Providing enough strong light for the plant can not only speed up its growth rate, but also make it grow more orderly. Under the condition of artificial maintenance, if natural light can not meet the growth needs, artificial light supplement is needed, and a lamp tube between 35W and 60W can be placed in the grass tank to enhance the light.
When the dwarf pearl is just planted, the illumination needed every day is not much, and the average illumination time is about 3 hours a day. After the plant grows for 15-20 days, the light duration can be gradually increased, and at least 6 hours of light is needed every day.
